Safety at first

The core of the DPTE® system is the Alpha port with its secure interlock enabling totally safe connections and disconnections:

The operator cannot open the DPTE® Alpha door when the DPTE® Beta part is not properly connected
The operator cannot disconnect the DPTE® Beta part if the double door is not closed
The operator cannot open the DPTE® Alpha door when the DPTE® Beta port is not equipped with the Beta part

External opening

The external handles of the DPTE®-FLEX, which perform the double functions (unlocking/locking and opening/closing), are fully accessible from outside the enclosure.

The Alpha door cannot move unless the external handle is actioned. The fully controlled Alpha door movement offers a safe opening, especially on an inclined wall.

In addition to its external opening, the DPTE®-FLEX can also offer internal opening as an option.

Dismountable funnel

To meet specific needs and to facilitate component transfer, we offer a long and a short funnel as an option. The funnel protects the alpha/beta seals and its patented FAST system (Funnel Add-on for Smooth Transfer) allows efficient component transfer to the process area (feeder/bowl).

The funnel is mounted on the isolator wall, above the DPTE® door and its position is controlled using a handle accessible from outside the enclosure. The dismountable funnel can be easily, safely, and quickly released with one hand, and the assembly is fully autoclavable.

2. Suitable for stainless steel or glass wall

3. Same installation diameter as the 190 DPTE®-XS

4. Handle to unlock/lock the door

5. Internal opening (optional)

6. Fully controlled alpha door movement

7. Large 160° opening angle

Supporting the need for gloveless processes

Getinge has developed a sleeveless DPTE-BetaBag® reducing human intervention in the aseptic environment. The sleeve has been removed and its protective functions are now replaced by the funnel.

The DPTE®-FLEX with sleeveless DPTE-BetaBag is a fully validated and interlocked system. Together with the dismountable funnel, it offers a total transfer solution from the outside of the aseptic filling area to the processing area.

Sleeveless DPTE-BetaBag

Beta and alpha ports join to form a single validated unit when connected by rotation. The FDA-compliant silicone lip seals form a secure connection, allowing the door to be safely opened without breaking sterility or containment. The manually connected sleeveless DPTE-BetaBag comes in RTS (Ready to Sterilize) or RTU (Ready to Use) depending on the bag material for minimum human intervention, increased efficiency, simplified component transfer, and reduced risk of contamination.
